More Twinchie goodness!

Hello stampers!

First let me say thanks so much to everyone who dropped by my blog to congratulate me on the Darkroom Door CT position, and to leave a comment for the giveaway! I really appreciate all your support!

Today I have 2 new entries to share with you all!

First we have this lovely Twinchie and card from Be(e) of Belgium:



From Be(e):

"I started my twinchie with a piece of white cardstock, which was slightly smaller than 5×5cm. I colored the background with Adirondack espresso ink and stamped the snowflakes from SEI and the sentiment in the same color. The sentiments is from the Hero Arts Holiday Sayings stamp set. I used the ‘peace-love-joy’ stamp, but just parts of it. I added gemstones on the snowflakes and distressed the edges of the white cardstock. I placed it on a dark brown 5×5cm mat and distressed the edges of this mat as well".



"I used this twinchie on a brown card, which I also gave a layer of that same espresso ink. The text stamp is an older PSX rubber stamp, the snowflakes (in espresso and dune) are all from SEI. I adhered the twinchie down with dimensionals".

Gorgeous work Be(e)!

Next we have some lovely Twinchies and a Christmas decoration from Ros Crichton:



From Ros:

"I painted two pieces of MDF (2x2 inches) with white gesso and distressed, painted around the edges with black paint and used silver renaissance foil over that. I stamped the scroll which was from Stampin' Up "Ocean Commotion" in perfect plum and heat embossed BELIEVE which is from the Darkroom Door Yuletide Vol 2 set. I Painted the Grungeboard star in purple, foiled over it, and added the bling".



"The second side was done in a similar fashion. I glued both twinchies together allowing wire to go between them and went to town with the beads".



Great work Ros! I'm sure it will look lovely on your tree!

Not long to go now until the end of the challenge! But there is still plenty of time to get your Twinchie done! I look forward to seeing some more soon! :)

Everyone has been so creative with this challenge. I wonder if I can come up with anything to even come close to these.
